Harnpon's place is for someone like me, an IDEAL place: quiet, residential, VERY local, stylish, modern, and chic. First, the neighborhood was very "home-y". The neighborhood seemed to have lots of Thai-Chinese old families, with houses that seem to be of historical significance. It has a few food vendors, for you foodies out there, to try some local Thai cuisine (beyond Khao San Road). -- I recommend the noodle soup lady! -- Bang Rak is minutes walk away from the Silom area, also known as the nightlife of Bangkok area. It is also minutes walk from the local modes of transportation, tuktuk, taxi, metro, etc. Check-in is easy -- just type in the lock code and viola! ALSO -- if you use a local sim card with Internet, finding the building complex on Grab/Google Maps is easy! The apartment itself is as what many here are saying -- a design show room. It is very modern and chic and boutique in feeling. Two AC's, one in the living room and one in the bedroom, HOW CAN YOU BEAT THAT! A kitchen, a big fridge, a clean bathroom, everything you need and beyond during your stay in Bangkok. I 110% recommend Harnpon's place!
